Medium Green Chaser's Pitch, formulated and developed by Metal Sculptor Debra Montgomery, is organic pine rosin based pitch. Blacksmiths, Sculptors, Armorers and Jewelers alike have found this type of pitch suitable for years. It is excellent for medium to high relief work and can be worked slightly warm using a heat gun. In cold temperature this pitch will release metal.
NOTE: Nechamkin Medium Green Chaser's Pitch is sold in 5 lb increments. Be sure to order enough to fill your bowl plus a little extra to replenish the bowl and fill in the embossed work. An 8" diameter deep pitch bowl from Otto Frei takes roughly 5-7 lbs of pitch to fill depending on if you prefer it mounded up or flush.
